Boise School District is currently taking public comments regarding a proposed modification to the 2018-2019 school year calendar.

A public comments web page has been created to accept input from Boise School District parents/guardians, students, staff members and patrons.

With a focus on student achievement, the Boise School District's Board of Trustees in October of 2017 will consider modifying the 2018-19 school year calendar to end the First Semester prior to the Winter Holiday Break, which will result in ending the school year before Memorial Day weekend, the last week of May.

Currently, First Semester ends about two weeks after Winter Break and secondary students spend that 'break' studying and preparing for their final exams. The school year currently ends after Memorial Day in June.
